Abortion facility violations
 

The fact that so many violations have been discovered at many abortion facilities from inspections the past few years leads me to question whether this is a good time to be lowering the standards.  There clearly is a concern for the safety of women seeking abortions at these facilities.  I oppose Governor McAuliffe’s proposed amendments that seek to significantly water down the health and safety standards for abortion centers.
